Sawant had also lodged a complaint against Chopra accusing her of making allegations about her personal life with the Oshiwara Police Station in November 2022. The latest development came a day after a Dindoshi Sessions Court rejected Sawant's anticipatory bail application in the same case lodged by her professional rival. The actress-model duo shares a love-hate relationship in public and have been waging a war against each other on social media for some time now.
The arrest also comes days after Rakhi and her husband Adil Khan Durrani went public with their marriage on social media. Rakhi Sawant had changed her name to Fatima after the marriage and also now identifies herself as Rakhi Adil Khan. Reports say that the duo was scheduled to launch their dance academy at 3 pm today.
